Sleep undisturbed within the peaceful shrine, Till angels wake thee with a note like thine

No jewel is as perfect as the innocence of childhood

Sleep, my little one, sleep

Children are a heritage of the Lord. Psalms 127:3

The child is the father of the man

Little Boy Blue has gone away

God’s garden has need of little flowers

Remembering a tiny angel

So small, so sweet, so soon

Lord, we give you our littlest angel

Budded (or blossomed) on earth to bloom in Heaven

For of such is the Kingdom of Heaven

His was a man’s courage

Our littlest angel who went back to Heaven

Called by one who loves him dearly

Let thy child rest in hope and rise in glory

Awaiting the touch of a little hand, and the smile of a little face

Children are the keys of paradise

An angel visited the green earth, and took a flower away

For the Males/Females

God’s greatest gift returned to God - my mother

O, Lord I put her in thy hands

She had a kindly word for each and she died beloved by all

She lives with us in memory and will for evermore

May God grant you eternal rest, dear Mother

She concealed her tears but shared her smiles

God took her home, it was His will, but in our hearts she liveth still

God bless thee wheresoe’er thou art in His great universe today

She is resting peacefully with Jesus in that beautiful home above

Her memory is enshrined in our hearts

Her friendship was an inspiration, her love a blessing

Resting with those she loved

She served and kept the faith

She walked in beauty

Her friends were her world

She loved people and laughter

She would rather give than receive

God called her from among us to a home of eternal rest

Always loving: always loved

To know her was to love her

She gave so much and demanded so little

Her children arise up and call her blessed

A mother is a mother still, the holiest thing alive

Grace was in all her steps, heaven in her eye, in every gesture dignity and love

When she had passed, it seemed like the ceasing of exquisite music

She passed through glory’s morning gate and walked into paradise

Reflecting a Life Well-Lived

Cremation Monuments- Summit Memorials

“I finally had time today to see the new monument. Oh my goodness, it took my breath away when I saw it! It’s gorgeous! I love the engraving Dad chose. It’s a real one of a kind! I don’t think I’ve seen any others like it. As I walked across the cemetery towards Mom’s grave, the monument just jumped out at me! It’s beautiful!! The artificial roses in the vase are a lovely touch as well, complete with matching ribbon. You have no idea how happy it made me to see all that, and to finally have closure with having everything in place at the cemetery. I eyed the alignment of the monument with the edge of the sidewalk type concrete pad it’s on, and saw with satisfaction that it is perfectly straight on the pad. Someone has a real eye for detail. Thank you again for your help, patience and professionalism! God bless you both as you help ease the pain of loss in people’s lives."
